Because they needed to produce a collision with an energy around 200 GeV, the top quark's rest mass, to pop it into existence. There are currently only two accelerators in the world that can do this, the LHC at CERN and the Tevatron at Fermilab. As a point of reference, a mass of 200 GeV/c2 is about 200 times more massive than a proton.

Why do astronomers find it difficult to locate extrasolar planets with telescopes-?

Light from the stars they orbit makes it difficult to see them.


Where can you find quasar in the universe?

(sarcastic answer removed) A quark is a subatomic particle. They are found in protons and neutrons, for instance, which together make up the nucleus of atoms. The word also appears in Finnegan's Wake, in the line "Three quarks for Muster Mark!" The answer is twofold: everywhere, and nowhere. A quark is considered the most elemental of all subatomic particles. Quarks make up other subatomic particles, such as protons and neutrons. Because quarks make up other subatomic particles, and because all matter is made up from subatomic particles, you will "find" quarks in everything you see, touch, smell, and taste. First, quarks are too small to see or measure. Therefore, you could never actually "find" a quark. Second, quarks always - but always - exist in combinations with other quarks to make up other particles. Quarks do not exist alone as free quarks. Therefore, even if you could see them, you could never find just a quark.

Why is it difficult to find evidence of life on other panets?

Because there is little or none of it.


What particles came together to form protons and neutrons?

Quarks. They come in a total of 6 varieties called (flavours). Up, down, strange, charm, bottom and top which are figurative names describing various properties. Different combinations of quarks make up Neutrons and protons and other less stable particles. To find out details please look up quantum chromodynamics. The term quark was applied by Murray Gell-Mann.

Why was it so difficult for scientist to find the 6 quark?

very interesting question, we don't know why. however there are several lines of evidence from studying other particles in the standard model that suggest that there cannot be more than 6 quarks.

Are there 2 positives in a quark and one negative?

== No. The quark is a fundamental particle, and it comes in 6 different forms. (A chart is posted by our friends at Wikipedia, and a link to that chart is provided below.) As it is a fundamental particle, there aren't "positives" or "negatives" inside a quark. We thought at one point that the quark was made up of point particles called partons, but that idea has been largely abandoned. We're still puzzling out the underlying nature of the quark. Work in the big colliders continues, and the blackboards and notepads of the research scientists who are pouring over the results are full of ideas. But nothing tenable has yet to be published. Links are provided to Wikipedia posts on the quark and related subjects. You'll find those links below.
